Appreciating and Encouraging Excellence in Mathematics Support through Collaborative Research

sigma is planning to carry out a collaborative educational research project in mathematics support leadership using a method called Appreciative Inquiry (AI). The co-researchers will include leaders of mathematics support centres leading developers of mathematics support resources and authors of published articles on mathematics support in UK Higher Education (HE). The aim of the research will be to learn from each other and to encourage further development by analysing and building on individual strengths and successes. It hopes to extend “MathTEAM’s” previous case study research and its associated good practice guide by inquiring into critical issues across the sector in a more focussed manner.
